We knew it was coming. I love him. I told him after the game, he was great. He was a beast.

We knew he was going to have to make a decision at some point. Once he gets cleared, we've got to know. We've got to make a decision because it's getting to be drama.

We knew there were going to be times that we're going to play bigger, even three forwards depending on teams we play. It's not real complicated. We can put people in different spots.

I thought West Virginia was just great. It's the Big East. You knew it was going to come some time where someone was going to play a better game. We've just got to make sure it doesn't happen again.
five four guy knew pounds surprise
He?s good, but we knew that already because we recruited him. He?s a four or five for a Connecticut team, so he?s going to be a guy who pounds you, who?s very physical. He?s not a surprise to us.
beat both depth game impressive knew surprise year
I didn't think someone would do it this year because of the depth of the conference, because of how much every game is going to take out of you. This is real impressive for both teams. It doesn't surprise me, any of the upsets, because we knew we could get beat any night.

I never thought we could get a player from a nationally renowned program. I knew there was a strong spiritual aspect to him and great intelligence.

We just got a report from the doctor at the hospital, and it is great news. It actually looked a lot worse than it was. Al is going to be released, and he has vision.

We will sit down when the season is over and we will gather all the information, and there is no one that wants what's best for him more than any of us. I have been incredibly impressed with the way he has handled this.

The students are all yelling, 'Final Four, Jay,' ... It's fun. We're loving it.

Is that with an asterisk? ... It's an honor because obviously the coaches have a high regard for our players. Now we have to go out and earn it.
Right now we're No. 3, so I like it.
